Line Gauthier Poet Free verse

What's My Life Mission

How the question
Troubled me so
Squinting for clarity

Revealed when ready
Seems clearer now
In a hazy sort of way

Creativity
Talents to exploit
Almost too late

Feeling I have to rush
Before crossing the finish line
To earn any celestial reward
